The BROOKS Hyperion Elite 5 is built for one purpose — to help you run faster for longer. Designed with elite marathoners in mind but accessible to dedicated runners of all levels, it delivers an ultra-light, propulsive ride that helps you maintain pace without sacrificing comfort. Its DNA GOLD midsole foam, combined with a carbon-fibre SpeedVault+ plate, works to return more energy with each stride, keeping you feeling fresh and efficient all the way to the finish line.
Under the streamlined upper, you’ll find thoughtful engineering that balances performance with a secure fit. The TPU-coated knit wraps your foot without adding bulk, while silicone lace sheaths ensure your laces stay put mid-race. The 8 mm heel-to-toe drop, paired with a 40 mm stack height, offers a smooth transition that feels natural whether you’re picking up speed in a tempo session or pushing hard on race day. All of this comes in a shoe weighing around 196 grams, so it barely registers on your feet.
Beyond speed, the Hyperion Elite 5 is designed to give you confidence. The lightweight SpeedTack rubber outsole delivers dependable grip across road surfaces, while the size-specific carbon plate ensures the right balance of stiffness and flexibility for your stride. With athlete feedback from the likes of Des Linden and Josh Kerr shaping its design, every detail serves a purpose — to make you feel faster, more efficient, and race-ready.
